The reasons for this trend of higher set EV is likely multifaceted but all of them lead me to the conclusion that less supply exists for newer cards, especially mythics, creating an opening for substantially inflated prices for cards that become constructed staples. The first potential reason for...
I fully expect this drop to be the first one to sell out, just like the first two did. My current plan once the fourth drop arrives later this year is to repackage all four into complete sets and sell them that way. I’m also going to be heavily targeting the English foils, as tho...
